NCT00861250

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine the rate of molecular remissions (MolR) assessed by ASO-RQ-PCR technique after induction treatment with bortezomib and dexamethasone (Vel/Dex) prior to high-dose therapy with melphalan and autologous stem cell transplantation (HDT-ASCT), and after HDT-ASCT in patients with multiple myeloma.
